Heck if I know, I haven't kept up. Why bother? I wasn't going to vote for Trump anyway (whatever small chance I had was removed by his haphazard Syrian withdrawal), and I can't see myself voting for any of the Democrats either. It'll almost certainly be Brian Carroll for me, even if it has to be a Write-In. The issue of Trump's guilt or innocence won't even affect me indirectly in regards to the Senate/House (who do decide the issue of impeachment) because my district is so liberal the Republicans didn't even bother running someone last time, and there's no Senate election in my state in 2020. So why should I care? The amount of time spent untangling this whole mess to form an opinion would be better spent forming an opinion on something that is actually relevant to my life choices.
The problem is that that doesn't really relate to the whole "well, God allowed it!" idea. I don't know why you even brought it up if you weren't actually arguing anything with it.

God allowed, for whatever reason, Trump to be President. I am instructed to pray for those in power over us. I do.
I am NOT told to attack him at every turn, and pile on, and believe and report every bit of gossip and rumor about him. I certainly am not consumed with his demise. I leave that in God's hands.
I don't happen to believe that the people who are at war with him - Pelosi and Schiff, for example - are God's agents for change. They're just as determined to keep control of the House as Trump is determined to keep control of the White House, and the Republicans are determined to keep control of the Senate.
The legitimate means for removal of Trump, as I said, is either impeachment or the 2020 election. For now, it appears impeachment is rapidly losing steam - even more news today.
IF the Dems had really been serious about finding the truth, they wouldn't have gone about it in such a smarmy manner, putting the one of the most partisan hacks on the planet as judge, chief prosecutor and jury.
